Screams, Unrestrained With Zeynep Dagli

Her work “Negotiation between Madness & Sanity” takes into account the concept of a disconnect between internal and external struggles and traumatic experience.

The work is a collaborative project with the public. Dagli records people screaming without restraint in an attempt to explore the given right and therapeutic power of screaming. A basic human impulse, screaming both draws attention to the screamer and provokes the viewer.

In her practice, Dagli often collaborates with disabled artists and performers to create work. She completed her PhD in 2009 and has continued making short films for a wide variety of audiences.

This piece will be projected onto the façade of the Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit (MOCAD). Dlectricity will also host a Scream Tent on site at MOCAD for the public to participate in this cathartic process.
